about power and influence
Power in the world is gained and maintained by the "focus on others". This is valid and important. This is part of the "power paradox" which defines us when a balance is achieved in our lives.
Social Practices are Four-Fold
This balance is between a gratification of our own desires and our focus on other people.
We must lern to enjoy the deeper delights that make a lasting impression in our environment. A thoughtful practitioner of good social practices will not be misled by the path of power made by self-gratification and abuse.
Social Practices are Four-Fold
- empathizing
- giving
- expressing gratitude
- telling stories
Power has become a word that includes a collection of behaviors, states, emotions, and phenomena.
Our influence is only as good as what others think of us. Having enduring power depends on other people continuing to give it to us. Think that power is given to us rather than grabbed. Gain power by acting in ways that improve the lives of other people in our social networks.
How we handle the power paradox guides our personal and work
lives and determines, ultimately, how happy we and the people we care
about will be. It determines our empathy, generosity, civility,
innovation, intellectual rigor, and the collaborative strength of our
communities and social networks.
We rise in power and make a difference in the world due to what is best about human nature, but we fall from power due to what is worst.

Reba McEntire has released a new album. Stronger Than the Truth is a very good country album. Reba has made a statement.
She has decided to get back to her roots. Two songs particularly stand out on this album.

take notes
The power of handwriting is undeniable. It is a process in which you really cannot think about anything aside from what you are putting on the paper, or else what you put down will be gibberish. Truly take the time to write down ideas for an article and then type out the entire thing later.
